Broadly reactive antibodies specific for Plasmodium falciparum MSP-1 19 are associated with the protection of naturally exposed children against infection
Abstract Background The 19 kDa C-terminal region of Plasmodium falciparum Merozoite Surface Protein-1 is a known target of naturally acquired humoral immunity and a malaria vaccine candidate. MSP-1 19 has four predominant haplotypes resulting in amino acid changes labelled EKNG, QKNG, QTSR and ETSR....

Methods Blood samples from 201 healthy Kenyan adults and children who participated in a 12-week treatment time-to-infection study were evaluated. Venous blood drawn at baseline (week 0) was examined for functional and serologic antibodies to MSP-1 19 and MSP-1 42 variants. MSP-1 19 haplotypes were detected by a multiplex PCR assay at baseline and weekly throughout the study. Generalized linear models controlling for age, baseline MSP-1 19 haplotype and parasite density were used to determine the relationship between infecting P . falciparum MSP-1 19 haplotype and variant-specific antibodies. Results A total of 964 infections resulting in 1,533 MSP-1 19 haplotypes detected were examined. The most common haplotypes were EKNG and QKNG, followed by ETSR and QTSR. Children had higher parasite densities, greater complexity of infection (>1 haplotype), and more frequent changes in haplotypes over time compared to adults. Infecting MSP-1 19 haplotype at baseline (week 0) had no influence on haplotypes detected over the subsequent 11 weeks among children or adults. Children but not adults with MSP-1 19 and some MSP-1 42 variant antibodies detected by serology at baseline had delayed time-to-infection. There was no significant association of variant-specific serology or functional antibodies at baseline with infecting haplotype at baseline or during 11 weeks of follow up among children or adults.
